Jerry's

Mindy Friedler and Mark Bires, the husband-and-wife team who also operate downtown po' boy shop Mac and Min's, are behind this sandwich-focused restaurant and lounge in Wicker Park. The encyclopedic menu includes 100 sandwiches (such as the Spence M with bacon, peanut butter, apple, cranberry sauce and basil, and the Walker P with prosciutto, soppressata, fried eggplant, peppers, provolone and Southwest mayo), plus a build-your-own option, all served with a couple of sides of your choice. You'll also five burger varieties, appetizers and one of the more impressive beer and whiskey lists in town. Outdoor seating along Division Street is a big draw during the summer; indoors, a small stage hosts live music acts and a 10-foot big-screen TV shows movies and major sporting events.
